Warning that the U.S. withdrawal could mean reductions in health aid to countries like Zimbabwe, Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube stated: “Every country facing the challenge of HIV/AIDS will be affected.”

“This is a concern, a fear we are expressing,” Ncube said during an online briefing from the Swiss resort of Davos, where he is attending the World Economic Forum.

Zimbabwe receives over $200 million annually from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), and the U.S. government has provided Zimbabwe with over $1.7 billion since 2006 to strengthen health systems and support people living with HIV, according to the U.S. embassy in Harare.
